Why quotes vary
- • Per-watt price: smaller systems often cost more per watt, while 10+ kW systems should usually trend lower
- • Orientation and shading: south-facing full sun is strongest; east/west, north-facing roof planes, and tree shade should lower expected production
- • Usable roof area: fire setbacks and obstructions cap system size, so verify the kW quoted actually fits the usable roof
- • Battery scope: whole-home backup costs more than essential-loads backup and should be spelled out in writing
- • Incentives: confirm whether the 30% ITC and state programs like NY-Sun are shown pre- or post-credit, and get the gross price in writing
- • Interconnection and permitting: utility rules, meter work, and local permit costs can legitimately move the quote
